Thora Birch & Her Huge Breasts Replace Lindsay Lohan in ‘Manson Girls’

Thora-Birch2

Thora Birch and her magnificent breasts are set to replace human drug Lindsay Lohan in Junction Films’ upcoming bio-pic Manson Girls. The 28-year-old American Beauty starlet will play Nancy Pitman, a Charles Manson cult follower who later served time for her involvement in a deadly Aryan Brotherhood murder.

Manson Girls is directed by Susanna Lo and costars Heather Matarazzo (Hostel II), Jennifer Landon (“As the World Turns”), Erin Kelly, Michael Monks and the very fat Nikki Blonsky (“Huge”). Production on the movie begins on Feb. 2011.

Birch was nominated for a Golden Globe award for her performance in the 2001 dramedy Ghost World. Since then, she has been slumming it in the straight-to-DVD market, appearing in Dark Corners, Train and the Brittany Murphy vehicle Deadline.

(UPDATE: THORA HAS DROPPED OUT OF THE MOVIE. MOST LIKELY BECAUSE OF THIS)

Photos of sexy 19-year-old newcomer Jennifer Lawrence on the set of director Mathew Vaughn’s X-Men: First Class have hit the web. The images feature Lawrence as young mutant Mystique—in hot black miniskirt and boots—taking a stroll in the rain with James McAvoy’s Professor Charles Xavier.

Actress Rose Byrne (28 Weeks Later) also pops up in the shots—in caramel boots—as Charles love interest Dr. Moira MacTaggert.

X-Men: First Class costars January Jones as Emma Frost, Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, and Caleb Landry as Banshee.

Lawrence starred in this year’s award-winning indie-drama Winterbone and will headline A Bigger Boat’s upcoming thriller House at the End of the Street. McAvoy made Clatto’s list of 12 Heroes in Horror/Sci-fi That Won’tMake You Feel Like an Asshole.

Universal Pictures has rolled out an action-packed trailer for the straight-to-DVD prequel Death Race: Frankenstein Lives. Directed by Roel Reine, the film stars former-prison-inmate-turned-Hollywood-headliner Danny Trejo, Silent Hill’s Sean Bean,  Piranha’s Ving Rhames, “Supernatural” starlet Lauren Cohan, and South African model/actress Tanit Phoenix.

(UPDATE: TANIT IS UP FOR WONDER WOMAN/ WILL STAR IN HBO’S ‘FEMME FATALES)

Rev up the trailer:

The official synopsis reads:

Death Race 2 takes place in the very near future, as the United States economy begins to decline and violent crime starts to spiral out of control. To contain the growing criminal population, a vast network of for-profit, private prisons springs up, creating a lawless subculture ruled by gangs, cold-blooded killers and sociopaths.

The worst of these prisons is Terminal Island. Convicted cop-killer Carl Lucas arrives on the Island to serve his life sentence just as ruthlessly ambitious television personality September Jones launches the ultimate reality show, Death Race.

A brutal prison yard demolition derby that pits prisoners against each other in steel reinforced, heavily armed vehicles, Death Race offers the winner the ultimate prize: freedom — if he can survive to enjoy it. When Lucas signs up to be a driver, the stage is set for the birth of a legendary racer.

The original Death Race 2000 was produced by Roger Corman in 1975 and starred chronic masturbator David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone. The film was remade by director Paul W.S. Anderson (Resident Evil: Afterlife) in 2008 with Jason Statham in the driver’s seat. The remake earned over $72 million in worldwide coin.

‘S&Man’ Teases Snuff/ Why Does Horror Kill Hot Chicks Instead of Fatties?

S&Man_

Director J.T. Petty’s (Burrowers) ode to snuff films S&Man (pronounced sandman) arrives on DVD and Blu-ray disc on Oct. 12. The film follows Petty as he documents the life and work of an underground horror filmmaker named Eric Rost, who may or may not be killing his actresses.

Check it, yo:

S&Man joins a growing list of films (i.e. Serbian Film, I Spit On Your Grave, Penance, Poughkeepsie Tapes) that embrace brutal violence towards women. Often times, the victims in these flicks are attractive women. That puzzles me. Why would anyone want to beat, dismember, and/or murder hot chicks? That’s like killing puppies or hating ice cream. Now fat chicks—that I could understand.

huge

Of course, I know that watching an actress like Nikki Blonssky (pictured above) get raped and tormented in a flick would disturb moviegoers’ cocks. It would also ruin the horror and suspense because things are only interesting when they happen to good looking people—and by people I mean hot topless chicks . This fact is something I’m hoping Petty explores in S&Man when he turns on his viewers thematically and forces them to examine their demented interest in the genre.

If not, I’ll settle for nude skinny girl boobs.

Activity_2

A creepy new trailer for Paramount Pictures eagerly anticipated sequel Paranormal Activity 2 is now haunting the web. The clip introduces the film’s new victims, a family of four and their German Shepard.

Though I maintain a once-bitten-twice-shy attitude towards this movie (I found the original to be as dull as it was nauseating), I gotta admit babies and dogs reacting to unseen entities freaks me the fuck out. I’m also a sucker for simple scares such as doors slamming shut on their own.

Peep it:

OK, when the daughter shows a picture of a young girl, does she say it’s a picture of Katie (the possessed chick from the first flick)?

Paranormal Activity 2 is directed by Kip Williams (Door in the Floor) and arrives in theaters on Oct. 22. Oren Peli returns as writer/producer. The film will face-off against Kevin Greutert’s Saw 7 in 3-D (GoTeam Jigsaw!).

Greutert had been attached to direct the Paranormal sequel, but was forced to remove himself over contractual obligations with Lionsgate.
